Answers:

  • first box =  0.84x
  • second box = 84

=================================================

Explanation:

Think of x - 0.2x as 1x-0.2x. The numbers out front, the 1 and -0.2, combine to 0.8

The 0.8 converts to 80%, meaning that if there's a 20% off sale, then you still have to pay the remaining 80% of the original price.

The 1.05 indicates that we started with 100%, and then add on 5% sales tax, so 100% + 5% = 1 + 0.05 = 1.05

---------------

Simplifying the expression given to us leads to

1.05(x - 0.2x)

1.05(1x - 0.2x)

1.05(0.8x)

(1.05*0.8)x

0.84x

This shows that the final price, after tax, is 84% of the original price.

Step-by-step explanation:

If we were to use the formula y=mx+b, 2/3 is the slope and (0,-1) is the y intercept, so the x intercept must be about (1.5,0), so the graph is probably
